                    VETERAN LAKE CAPTAIN
                        EXPIRES AT MUSKEGON

               Muskegon, Mich., Dec. 26 - (Special)-
             Frederick Partridge, 72 years old, veteran
             of the civil war and an old lake captain,
             is dead at the home of Mr. and Mrs.

             England, and went to Grand Haven with
             his parents in the early '50s.  He was
             from early boyhood actively associated
             with lake marine and for many years
             captain on various lake craft.  In 1867
             the family moved to Montague.
               An inmate of the Soldiers' home at Mil-
             waukee for many years, Capt. Partridge
             only came back to Montague a few days
             ago.  He is survived by three sons, Ed-
             ward Partridge, who is a captain of one of
             the Pere Marquette car ferries operating
             between Grand Haven and Milwaukee; 
             Frank and George, the two latter resident
             in San Francisco.
